Victoria visit

We took the ferry across to Victoria to spend the night at the "Hotel Grand Pacific", and then had a wonderful (but busy!) day, visiting with Dave's Grandmother, who lives in the Esquimalt area. The sun actually started to shine partway through the day, so we were able to take in the beautiful views of the Harbour (as well as a visit to the BC museum, the Empress Hotel, and the Harbour Market).

Vancouver visit

We had a great visit with Skye and Chris, and their little guy Otis (8mths) in Vancouver. We packed in a full day at the Vancouver Aquarium, Granville Island and then had a "surprise" birthday party for Chris at the Curling club. It was great to see such great friends--wishing we lived closer (but happy we can still see each other often!).
